History

Renee Montoya was born and raised in Burnley, just off Van Buren Avenue. She is the eldest child of Hernando and Louisa Montoya, immigrants from the Dominican Republic, and has one brother, Benny.

She joined the Gotham City Police Department and graduated at the top of her class. As a GCPD Officer she was assigned into the Major Crimes Unit and partnered with Harvey Bullock, who tried to flirt with Renee during one of their first missions together; but Renee rejected him instantly.

As partners, Montoya and Bullock encountered many criminals including the False Face Society and The General. They arrested the General's gang with the Major Crimes Unit and they were in charge of questioning one of Cypher's henchmen after his capture. Some time later, Montoya and Bullock informed Commissioner Gordon about the theft of armament from a military precinct, after which, all the inmates from Arkham escaped.

Due to her outstanding detective skills, Vic Sage placed her as his mentee. When he died, she eventually took up the mantle of The Question.
